Borussia Dortmund scored three minutes from time to secure a 2-2 draw away to
Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine last night in a Champions League last-16 first
leg that was overshadowed by a fatal plane crash involving fans.

The match went ahead despite five people being killed and 12 injured when a
plane carrying supporters to the match in eastern Ukraine overshot the
runway in Donetsk and broke up when it attempted an emergency landing hours
before kick-off.

A minute’s silence was held inside the Donbass Arena before the match.
